That would be useless when translating C to Rust. Yes, I would expect the tool to point out the flaws in the original memory handling and only translate the corrected code. This is far from easy, since some information (intent) is missing, but a good coder could do it on decent codebases. The question is, can an automated tool do it too? We'll see.
